    Super easy. Here is the plug I bought but there are a ton of them out there.

    YONHAN 36W Quick Charge 3.0 Dual USB Car Charger Socket, Metal Waterproof 12V USB Outlet with Blue LED & 10A Fuse for 12V/24V Marine Boat Golf Cart Truck Motorcycle and More https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07LBLYTST/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glc_fabc_jJJbGbZ6X7C6B?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

    The swap took less than an hour start to finish. Hardest part is popping off and reinstalling that back panel. Once you get it off and unplugged, remove the small plate that the outlet is mounted to. You’ll see two little clips that hold the 12v outlet into the little plastic plate. Press those tabs and the outlet slides out. Use a step bit to drill out the hole to the proper size - I needed to be just over 1 1/8” to get proper fit. Cut the connecting plug off the wiring and crimp on 2 .250 spade connectors to plug into your new outlet. Reassemble and you’ll be able to keep your kids quiet on those long road trips.

    Decided to give the ol girl a face lift. No need to spend alot of money on a Pro Grille. I highly recommend getting this aftermarket grille from Empyre OffRoad and was less than $200.00. Also decided to test fit the bumpershellz.

    I noticed this issue today as well. Any one know a fix? Or is it back to the dealer?

    I get that. I appreciate the feedback. Good looking pup, I have a few back seat riders myself that the box will need to withstand.

    Thanks for feedback as well. I'll see what options I have here local and pick from them. Stay tuned.

    How long does the tire paint on the letters last? I think they look good new, but I'd be afraid they'd get stained and faded in about 6 months. With how my stocker tires are going, I'd expect my next set to last 3-4 years.

    If your talking about tires that have white lettering from the factory, it's in the rubber & lasts the lifetime of the tire.

    A little bleach white will have the letters looking new again whenever they get stained.

    Not sure it'd work or be good on tires, but a buddy of mine recommends the Magic Eraser cleaners to keep white soles looking good on shoes. Might be worth researching for this application.

    Does the bumper shell not cover the chrome completely? Looks like some is showing at the top aft corner

    He was test fitting them, so I would guess they'll cover when completely installed.

    Used this stuff for years on mine and years before that on my dad's. I think it use to be Westley's Bleche-White then Black Magic bought em out maybe?

    Added the center console charger, works great. While at it, designed and printed a dual outlet panel for the rear of the console. My first time printing w PETG and have a few adjustments to make but turned out pretty good. For the USB power cut off the 3 feet of wiring it comes with and tapped into the extension harness that comes with the wireless charger. I try to leave the factory wiring completely untapped / spliced any where I can. The USB is the Toyota part and has a nice backlight to it.

    Ports installed and ready to go in the truck.

    Installed.

    This is great! Would you mind sharing the file (happy to send you something for your time developing). I’ve wanted to put a 120v plug there and love how you kept the 12v.

    I think the OP was just doing a dry fit on the shells. Once they are installed, the cover the chrome.

    Yesterday I installed the ESP longbox storage, and while the install went well I'm pretty unhappy with the final product.

    The bolts for the box don't line up perfectly, and can only install one. I have to take EVERYTHING back out and add some more toe in to get the box to align. Anyone installing should "install" the seats and the box before bolting down the new rails, then uninstall to put the carpet back and formally install everything.

    Second, the driver side rear seats no longer latch now. This is where I'm really unhappy. Passenger solo seat is fine, but the double driver seats is not. Locking the box doesn't help (IMO the keys take a wee bit of finesse to get them in the lock). I'll have to call them today to see whats up, but I'm pretty ticked at the moment. There's no foam issue, that was all carved out and sitting level with the rails, so either my seat is "special" or something is amiss. Regardless, after this install you're a bit up shit creek if you decide you're not happy.
